Jim Quinn Quotations

We're seeing price swings that we haven't seen in decades. We used to see a $6 range in gold over a week, and now we see it in a single day. The gold market is really going to be in play over the course of the year.

When the market failed to hold $13, I think it shook some confidence in the market a little bit.

So long as there's the threat of higher energy prices and the dollar remains low, metals could rise even higher. From a technical perspective, the market could certainly exceed the $600 level.

If they couldn't make good on some coffee contracts, prices might go up.

Gold is still very much in vogue. Even though we had a pullback on what looked to be profit-taking, there was still some buying underneath the market. I think on any type of weakness, you're going to see some managed-money interest.

We had a little flight-to-quality interest because of Iran. If we didn't have the Iran news underpinning the market, the stronger dollar would probably have had more of an impact on the metals trade.

We played with that $600 level. I think the market's inability to get back above it early today - with the weaker energy and stronger dollar - all contributed to a little profit-taking.

Brazil is coming in with a huge crop, but coffee is a cyclical situation. It's usually a good year, then a bad year.

The way they played at guard, as fast as they were off the dribble and when they shoot like that, they are going to be a tough out for anybody.

It's all off of oil and we saw that spot metal was weak this morning so it looks like futures are trying to catch up.

It's like an advertisement when you come here that says, 'You don't want to live here,'

Everybody anticipated window dressing for tonight's close. And you got it.

I'm flatly opposed to that, ... I'm already subsidizing everybody in the state who has homeowners protection (through caps on homestead assessments) . . . If this goes through, my taxes will be paying for those who don't.

Because of online streaming, our members can offer live betting while the game is in progress. You could bet on whether a team is going to score, get fouled or turn the ball over during a possession, whether or not the shooter will make or miss his free throws, or just bet the line at the end of quarter, the half or the game. It's unbelievable what we can do now and it only takes nine-tenths of a second.
